To me, this has a bit of the beautiful punk spirit of the '70s.  Maybe I'm off, but anyway I love this one

Love the lyrics, brilliant and the punky spirit!

Sure hope the band name is ironic or whatever, everyone has some moral compass, right? I cannot deny these songs are pretty damn good!

If you check out the song Apologies for the Dead (and particularly the youtube video) I think that best explains matters reagrding the name.  P.S.  The video is not an 'easy' watch.   The name is in commemoration of all those men (and women) who were persecuted because of their identity.

No Moral Compass

Muse upon our existence
Around West End dining tables.
Each one has two-penneth
But not one of them is intelligent.
What we need is ‘change’ he agrees,
Change for ‘them’ of course, not for me.
She leans in and nods approvingly
“Can someone pass the hummus, please?”

Look at me I have something to say
Blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah
I’m a moral vacuum, I’m the face of the day (decay)
La la la la, la la la la
I have a compass with no sense of direction
Blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah
I fake shock and compassion with an upwards inflection
La la la la, la la la la

“I left University with a 1st in insecurity”
An old joke, told badly … still, they all laughed.
Social politeness dictates 
We must join in, we must have something to say …
“We just saved a rescue dog”
“I think my cat’s gay?”

Look at me I have something to say
Blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah
I’m a moral vacuum, I’m the face of the day (decay)
La la la la, la la la la
I have a compass with no sense of direction
Blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah
I fake shock and compassion with an upwards inflection
La la la la, la la la la

The way you turn your head towards him
is an unsolvable problem.
It’s a fraction of
the fading sunset,
a subset of this exhausted era.
The logic of your new mascara
and the rosy gloss
spread across your lips,
in the applied mathematics
of the over-dramatic,
lead to the conclusion 
of our relationship.

Why is the value of your ex-
undefined
and your feelings the variable
in the pitiless language
of zeros and ones --
of zeros 
and the ones
who leave the zeros behind?

The way you glow when he’s mentioned 
is a futile equation.
Fractal versions 
of my worst moments,
a sequence of sordid hypotheses
along the axes of impossibilities
that cut through the extremes of desire 
to shame and out liars.
This is the applied physics
of the chronically heartsick,
the shortest distance 
between two disappointments 
unspooling in a line 
on an average day 
in the mean time.

Your heart’s already
accounted for,
minus me  
and adding him instead.
But when did I
stop counting in your head?

[And here's a joke that didn't make the cut:
"You put the fib in Fibonacci"]

I Stopped Counting [as always, click on title for lyrics]
